Spree Commerce v4.0.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2019-10-09 // over 4 years ago

  • Major/New Features

    🍱 Rails 6.0 support 💥 💥 💥

    Spree 4.0 is fully compatible with Rails 6.0 and the new default Zeitwerk code autoloader.

    🍱 Storefront and Admin Panel moved to Bootstrap 4.2 🎨

    ⚡️ We've migrated both the default Spree frontend and Admin Panel from Bootstrap 3 to Bootstrap 4.2. This update brings all of the new features and fixes introduced in Bootstrap 4, 4.1 and 4.2. Accessibility and RWD were also improved in the process.

    ⬆️ Besides the Spree Frontend and Admin Panel we've also upgraded all extensions that required fixes, that is:

    ⚡️ If you use any of those extensions please update them along with the Spree update.

    ➕ Address Book support 🏠

    ➕ Previously for multiple addresses support you had to use the Spree Address Book extension. We've decided that this was an inconsistency (user account already supported multiple credit cards) and moved this code into the core Spree and improved it.

    Thanks to this signed in customers can manage multiple addresses in the Checkout and Account for both Shipping and Billing.

    JSON-LD structured data support 🌐

    🔍 To support schema.org we've replaced the old Microdata code with the new recommended JSON-LD format. This will make your store more future proof and improve SEO in the coming months.

    Installation

    gem 'spree', '~\> 4.0'gem 'spree\_auth\_devise', '~\> 4.0'gem 'spree\_gateway', '~\> 3.6'
